When the Market Speaks, We Listen

Hi friends,

Now and then, I like to share a behind-the-scenes moment from this business—and today’s has a takeaway someone out there may need to hear.

Every listing has a story—and sometimes, it just needs a different chapter.

🏡 Real Story: A Shift in Strategy Made All the Difference

A little while ago, I was invited in to help with a property on Division St S. It had been listed before, but the right buyer hadn’t come along. The sellers were open to a new approach, so we sat down, got aligned on expectations, and focused on a single goal: getting the job done.

From day one, we leaned into the story the home needed to tell. It had character, history, and charm—and that needed to show up in the way it was presented to the world. With the right marketing plan in place, we reached about 10,000 sets of eyes—a reminder that reach matters, but resonance matters more.

We priced with intention, gathered feedback from showings, and when we saw the activity slow, we had a clear, honest conversation: a price adjustment was the next step. That move unlocked a new group of buyers—and within a couple weeks, we secured a clean, full-price offer.

📲 Thinking of Selling—Or Know Someone Who Might Be?

This isn’t about big wins or flashy stats.

It’s about what happens when the right plan, the right story, and the right timing all line up.

If your home didn’t sell the first time—or if you’re considering listing and want to avoid spinning your wheels—let’s talk.

And if someone you know has been sitting on the sidelines or feeling stuck, forward this their way.

Sometimes the right story lands at the right time—and changes everything.

Talk soon,
Justin
